2011 is half over!


OK, 2011 is half over. Let's take a look at the goals we set out at the beginning of the year and see where we still need to put our energy and focus!

My 2011 goals included:
-daily meditation
-yoga practice 4-5 times per week
-continue sketch comedy
-get my music going by collaborating with composers
-get my screenplay ready for meetings
-Core Energetics training program
-excellent commercial and theatrical headshots
-get an awesome manager
-get an excellent commercial agent
-prepare scenes and do casting workshops
-send postcards to promote myself
-make more money
-declutter my physical space
-hire a wardrobe stylist
-follow my impulses and intuition
-slow down
-make plans with friends
-visit the Korean Spa
-be less stressed

I've done or begun most of these - the main thing sticking out is my music, which I've basically put on hold because of all the other things going on. I would like to maintain my voice better. So this month I will warm up my voice at least 2 times a week.

Is there something on your list you haven't done, and the reason is that you don't know how to start? My awesome mentor/friend/coach/extraordinary woman Kristine Oller says "if you're stuck, it's time to have a conversation." Find someone who can help you. This may be a meandering journey. If you're not even sure who to talk to, just call a good friend and see who they think you should talk to. You may have to talk to 5 or 10 people before you get the answer to your quandary. That can be a good thing, because all the while you're clarifying your goal and putting the energy out into the universe of what you want! Let me know how it goes!
So, you've been in LA for a year or more - you found a place to live, you bought a car and you even signed with an agent.

Now what?

This blog is about taking your career to the next level - thinking big, thinking outside the box and working collaboratively to achieve success. Success in LA.
